Research on the distribution of TSS and containing water chlorophyll-a using GEE Cloud Technology in Jakarta Bay Waters was conducted from April to August 2021. Analysis was carried out using the MODIS AQUA-L3SMI satellite and Sentinel 2 TOA reflectance data. The TSS results show that it is distributed evenly (homogenously), varies, and fluctuates from the coast of Jakarta to the Waters of Jakarta Bay, namely 0-120 mg/l, while the containing water chlorophyll-a is distributed unevenly or varies, namely from April 2021 with value 0-3 mg/m³, chlorophyll-a in May 2021 almost evenly distributed with a value of 0-2 mg/m³, chlorophyll-a in June 2021 spread unevenly and fluctuating with an amount of 1-3 mg/m³, for chlorophyll-a in July 2021 was absent due to the influence of many and thick clouds. Chlorophyll-a in August 2021 spread almost evenly and varied throughout the waters amounting to 0,28 mg/m³. TSS spreads evenly (homogeneously), varies, and fluctuates around the edge of Jakarta's coastal waters down to the waters of Jakarta Bay and is not suitable for demersal fish species except zooxanthellae coral reef species. Meanwhile, the containing water chlorophyll-a is spread evenly, varies, and fluctuates. The large amount of chlorophyll-a in all waters and the high TSS will cause total death of living creatures in the waters. Image data can be used to map TSS distribution patterns and contain water chlorophyll-a in the waters of Jakarta Bay.

Durability of Fresh Skipjack Fish (Katsuwonus pelamis) by Soaking in Chitosan Solution during Storage at Room Temperature based on Total Volatile Base (TVB) Value

Febrina Olivia Akerina, Femsy Kour — Sat, 15 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0800

Fish is a food that easily deteriorates in quality. After the fish is caught or dies, the decomposition process begins to occur, this process lasts 12-20 hours at tropical temperature conditions, depending on the species, fishing method, and fishing equipment. The cause of the decline in fish quality is the activity of bacteria and enzymes by breaking down the components of the fish's body tissue, resulting in physical changes, namely softening of the meat and chemical changes that produce a foul smell due to volatile compounds. This research aims to determine the effect of chitosan solution on the durability of fresh skipjack tuna during storage based on the Total Volatile Base (TVB) value. The results of the research showed that the average TVB content of fresh skipjack tuna from treatment (AB) ranged from 8.48 - 16.78 mg N/100 g, still in the fresh category. BNT follow-up tests showed that the treatment of chitosan concentration and storage time significantly affected the skipjack tuna’s TVB value.

Different Type Of Feeds Effect On Tilapia Growth

Henny Fitrinawati, Endang Sri Utami — Tue, 09 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0800

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is also known as tilapia. Tilapia shows an adequate ability to grow and survive even in poor habitats. The success of tilapia farming activities is influenced by several factors, one of which is feed. This study aims to see the effect of feeding different types of feed: marine fish feed (Otohime S2) and freshwater fish feed (MS Preo 320) on tilapia growth. Tilapia fry was kept in an aquarium for each treatment and fed three times a day for 30 days. Data were analyzed using a completely randomized design to determine the effect of feed on tilapia growth (Wm, Lm, SGR, FCR, and SR). Based on ANOVA (α = 0.05), it detected marine fish feed slightly increased tilapia growth but not significantly, except for Lm. It is caused by tilapia being at seed age length growth is more dominant than body weight. The factor causes a slight increase in tilapia growth given marine fish feed has a higher protein content than freshwater fish feed. Water quality components consisting of temperature, DO, and pH (26 – 30,5^oC; 4,88 – 5,8 mg/l; 8,25 – 8,32) are in the range of values by the water quality standards for tilapia fry.

Ikan nila (Oreochromis niloticus) juga dikenal dengan nama tilapia. Tilapia memiliki kemampuan berkembang dan bertahan hidup yang baik bahkan pada habitat yang buruk. Keberhasilan kegiatan budidaya tilapia dipengaruhi beberapa faktor, salah satunya adalah pakan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pengaruh pemberian jenis pakan yang berbeda, yaitu pakan ikan air laut (Otohime S2) dan pakan ikan air tawar (MS Preo 320) terhadap pertumbuhan benih nila. Benih nila dipelihara dalam akuarium untuk tiap perlakuan dan diberikan pakan sebanyak tiga kali sehari selama 30 hari. Analisis data dilakukan dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap untuk melihat adanya pengaruh pakan terhadap pertumbuhan nila (Wm, Lm, SGR, FCR, dan SR). Berdasarkan hasil ANOVA (α = 0,05) diperoleh informasi bahwa pakan ikan air laut sedikit memberikan peningkatan pertumbuhan nila tetapi tidak signifikan, kecuali Lm. Hal ini dikarenakan nila pada usia benih memiliki pertumbuhan panjang lebih dominan dari bobot tubuhnya. Faktor yang menyebabkan terjadinya peningkatan nilai pertumbuhan nila yang diberikan pakan ikan air laut adalah kandungan protein yang lebih tinggi dari pakan ikan air tawar. Komponen kualitas air yang terdiri dari suhu, DO, dan pH (26 - 30,5^oC; 4,88 - 5,8 mg/l; 8,25- 8,32) berada pada kisaran nilai yang sesuai dengan baku mutu kualitas air bagi benih nila.

Morphometric study of Seagrass Enhalus acoroides (Linnaeus f.) Royle, 1839 in Coastal Waters of Budo Village

Wed, 31 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0800

This research concerns the morphometry of seagrass E. acoroides (Linnaeus) Royle in 1839 in the coastal waters of Budo Village, Wori District, North Minahasa Regency. The existence of seagrass ecosystems in coastal waters is so important that it is necessary to carry out morphometric studies of seagrass, both for scientific purposes and for the sake of knowledge about seagrass itself. This research aims to describe the morphometrics of E. acoroides seagrass on the coast of Budo Village, Wori District, North Minahasa Regency, to compare the morphometrics of E. acoroides seagrass based on sampling stations, and to determine the condition of the aquatic environment (temperature, salinity, pH, substrate). The research location was divided into 3 sampling stations, namely the first mangrove area with 20 individuals, the second seagrass area with 30 individuals, and the third coral reef area with 10 individuals. The sampling process is carried out using a roaming survey method, the sample is washed and put into a plastic sample which will then be measured. The results statistically show that E. acoroides species in the coastal waters of Budo Village at three stations show significant differences in morphometric size, where station three is smaller than stations one and two. Environmental conditions and existing environmental parameters cause this. The condition of the environmental parameters at the three stations is still within safe limits, so it is still good for seagrass growth.

Malalayang Beach is part of the coastal area of Manado Bay and is situated in the North Sulawesi Province of Indonesia. The coral reef ecosystem is one of the coastal ecosystems with high biodiversity. The uniqueness of the ecosystem and the diversity of its organisms make coral reef ecosystems have high social, ecological, and economic values. In 1998, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the United States recommended the use of foraminifera as indicators for aquatic assessments. Foraminifera is a meiobenthic components at the bottom of the sea that act as producer of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in sediments in the benthic and pelagic zones of the sea. The purpose of this study was to study at the composition of benthic foraminifera based on their genus in the waters of Malalayang Beach and also assess the condition of coral reef waters on Malalayang Beach using the FoRAM Index. This research was carried out by taking sediment samples in Malalayang Beach in nine sampling points at a depth of 5–8.5 m. The samples were then washed and sorted to obtain foraminifera tests. From 2,830 successfully identified specimens, 17 genera were obtained with FoRAM index values ranging from 5.46 to 9.53. The average value of the FoRAM Index at Malalayang Beach is 7.32, indicating that the waters of Malalayang Beach are still suitable for coral growth.
